THIS. Let’s look for ways to help it from happening rather than placing judgment on people in immensely difficult situations. Show compassion for both ends of the leash.
when you see people with dogs being rescued from flood water the best response is probably not to shame the owners for being what you assume is irresponsible
2nd donation of 2020 goes to @ChicagoRescues. They are at @ChicagoACC 4 days a week to offer help to keep families and pets together or get surrendered pets into rescue. The little guy in the video was rescued by @onetailatatime and will be adoptable soon!
At least 23% of the pets surrendered to @ChicagoRescues are given up due to housing issues. It’s one of the main reasons pets end up in already overcrowded public shelters. Many of the animals you see in shelters were once beloved family pets, only made homeless for this reason.
Roughly 23% of the pets surrendered through our shelter-diversion program (@ChicagoRescues) are given up due to housing issues. Have you faced pet restrictions that made it hard to find or keep #affordablehousing?

I won’t sleep tonight. Newly adopted Dougie is in the ER. We were unable to get clean margins when we amputated his cancer-filled leg. I love this dog so much. Any amount helps. Our deposit was $2900 for hospitalization, bloodwork and a transfusion. https://t.co/VMTaqn2eJx ❤️💔

I pet Frito. He is a 5 year old Chihuahua available for adoption through @onetailatatime. Frito is a shy dog who doesn’t bark a lot. He loves all dogs, big and small. Frito is looking for someone to snuggle with him.
